From 1981 up to the date, I have been working on research and extension activities related with
land degradation, land use systems, climate change and remote sensing. I also have been working
as consultant in programs and conventions of UN – FAO at national, regional, and international
level.
In 2006, I was part of the Global Desserts Outlook, as lead author of Chapter 3 and participating
